Utopia co-built Mentix with Dr Amyn Haji, translating his teaching practice into software. 8090 reports a usable prototype in three weeks and a full platform in three months.

## Mentoring could only reach as far as one surgeon’s diary.

Dr Haji’s teaching depended on being in the room with trainees. Mentix needed to make that expertise accessible remotely, with the surgeon’s requirements guiding the build.

## How Utopia helped

Utopia wrote the requirements with Dr Haji and built Mentix using Software Factory. Founding engineer James Cannan carried the build end to end, keeping the surgeon’s knowledge connected to implementation. The Studio also joined Dr Haji in customer meetings.

> Things moved fast. Within months I was in Qatar, building with the studio for a global market.

## A complete mentoring workflow.

The team delivered mentor search and booking, separate portals for trainees, mentors and sponsors, and live procedure broadcasting. 8090’s account records Mentix TV being used for a masterclass at King’s College Hospital.
